Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

As if it hadn't heard, Kirabi happily joined in with Liaowu's "didi-didi" sound.

The Fourth Raikage, along with Yugitomi Ryougo and Killer Bee, all lowered their guard in the midst of their happy moments.

Liao Wu seems to be a clone, showing no interest in the tailed beasts inside Killer Bee and Yuki.

As Liao Wu chatted, he activated his Sharingan to brainwash Killer Bee, extending vines to wrap around Killer Bee's head.

His attire changed again, and he was dressed as a plantation owner.

He wore a felt tricorn hat, a hunting jacket, and a thick leather belt around his waist, with a leather sheath hanging on one side containing a short cowhide whip.

"Come on, Killer Bee, let's go back and plant cotton!"

Killer Bee has absolutely no talent for rap, but he's strong-armed, muscular, and a master at farming.

Such a person should take his talent to the plantation.

The Fourth Raikage and Yugito rushed forward.

"I knew it! You can't trust anything the Uchiha say!"

The Fourth Raikage was enveloped in surging lightning, resembling a colossal lightning beast, concentrating all his chakra in his feet.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Plow Blade!"

"Here we go again, going to elbow someone again!"

Seeing the Fourth Raikage's murderous aura as he elbowed someone, Liao Wu immediately released Killer Bee and jumped out of the Fourth Raikage's attack range.

The Fourth Raikage stopped abruptly, looking at Ryogoku, who had released Killer Bee, with a puzzled expression: "Uchiha Ryogoku, what are you doing?"

Liao Wu explained, "Kirabi really doesn't have much talent for rap. I just want him to go back and grow some cotton with me!"

The Fourth Raikage roared, "Evil Uchiha! If you want the Eight-Tails, just say so! Stop with this nonsense!"

"Raikage, you think I'm being too polite?"

Liao Wu couldn't stand the Fourth Raikage's angry words any longer.

Even Ban wouldn't speak to him this aggressively. This big black guy thinks he's so special because he's black, and he talks to himself like that!

Liao Wu took out his short whip, making a whistling sound as he pulled it out. He pointed his cat paw at the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee and said, "I change my mind, Liao Wu."

"Raikage, Killer Bee, you two big black guys are clearly top-quality livestock. You'd better come with me to the Land of Rain to plant cotton!"

Killer Bee erupted in anger: "~Idiot~Bastard~You born evil Uchiha~You've utterly defiled rap~"

Killer Bee instantly transformed into a tailed beast.

……

In a place far from Takigakure Village.

Jiraiya and his group are leading the villagers and ninjas of Takigakure towards the Daimyo's residence.

Takigakure was destroyed, and Jiraiya wanted Konoha to help the people of Takigakure.

However, the ninjas of Takigakure had a way out: to seek help from the daimyo of Takigakure.

This is the normal way of thinking. If your family is ruined and your village is gone, what kind of behavior is it to ask a neighboring country for help instead of seeking help from the government?

Moreover, judging from Konoha's current stance, they will hold a Five Kage Summit with the other four major ninja villages to form an allied ninja force to deal with Uchiha Madara.

If they've already taken the rogue ninja, they'll definitely target the remaining Takigakure ninja.

Although Takigakure was destroyed, the ninjas of Takigakure did not suffer heavy casualties.

When Konan and Nagato invaded, they only wanted to seize the Seven-Tails; their killing intent wasn't very strong, and only about ten people died.

The leader of Takigakure died after drinking the Hero's Water.

The remaining people were either caught up in a wide-ranging ninjutsu attack or taken away by careless kunai.

As long as these ninjas are still alive, Takigakure will still have the opportunity to rebuild the village.

However, the Takigakure Ancient Tree, the Hero's Water, and the Seven-Tails are all completely gone.

Even if Takigakure were rebuilt, it would only be a second-rate ninja village, the kind that no one would place an order for.

Shibuki asked Jiraiya, "Lord Jiraiya, did the ancient tree in our Takigakure really stretch its legs and run away on its own?"

Jiraiya scratched his head and explained, "It didn't run away on its own; rather, the Wood Release gave it consciousness, making it a clone of someone else that ran away."

Shibuki said sadly, "They can never come back, right?"

Although Shibuki is young, he knows what is of utmost importance to Takigakure.

It's not the Seven-Tailed Fox, but the Hero's Water.

Takigakure was able to repeatedly knock enemies out of the waterfall thanks to the Hero's Water.

The Seven-Tails possess immense power, but it is not something their intelligence can harness.

As long as the ancient tree of Takigakure stands, the waters of heroes will remain.

As long as the Hero's Water flows, the hero will remain; as long as the hero lives, the village will continue to thrive.

A nation without heroes is pathetic!

Without the Hero's Water, Takigakure will never have the same cohesion as before.

The daimyo of Takigakure might just annex them.

Shisui, who had no eyes, smiled at Shibuki and said, "Shibuki, don't be sad. As long as our Allied Shinobi Forces can defeat Madara Uchiha, everything you have can be restored."

"Really?"

Zhi Shui nodded.

Shibuki's face lit up with joy: "Then you absolutely must defeat Uchiha Madara! I'll be waiting for your good news!"

Kakuzu snorted from the side, "That little brat really knows how to play the victim! He wants everything back without putting in any effort. Is there such a thing as a free lunch?"

Some members of Konoha's Anbu nodded in agreement, saying that Takigakure was truly ungrateful; the fact that so many of them were still alive was all thanks to Konoha.

Takigakure now wants Konoha to take back the Seven-Tails and the Takigakure Ancient Tree!

The important point is that Takigakure showed no intention of joining the Allied Shinobi Forces or sharing the hardships with everyone.

"..."

Shibuki and the ninjas of Takigakure were all silenced.

Their strength is weak, and their current leader is still a minor. If they went there, the first order the Allied Shinobi Forces would receive would probably be—Go and kill Uchiha Madara!

"Don't even think about the Seven-Tails and the Hero's Water; those are things your power can't retrieve."

"Ultimately, the Seven-Tails was just something Sunagakure didn't want, and Takigakure happened to pick it up by chance!"

The core purpose of Hashirama's initial distribution of the tailed beasts was to create a strategic balance among the five great nations.

All seven tailed beasts are concentrated in the four major ninja villages.

The Seven-Tails was originally intended for Sunagakure, so that Sunagakure would have two tailed beasts and could achieve a strategic balance with other countries.

But Sunagakure doesn't want tailed beasts; they want land where they can grow food.

When they couldn't reach an agreement, Hashirama gave the Seven-Tails to Takigakure.

Takigaku got lucky.

Despite receiving such a great favor, he was still not satisfied and, in a moment of folly, ordered someone to deal with Hashirama!

Those who know minor etiquette but lack great righteousness, who are bound by trivialities but lack great virtue, who value minor details but disregard integrity and shame, who fear power but do not cherish virtue, will inevitably become thieves and bandits when strong and subservient when weak.

Such a village has achieved absolutely nothing.

It's better if it's destroyed!

Kakuzu, in the air of a senior, lectured the incompetent junior of Takigakure: "If you really want to take back what's yours, then join the Allied Shinobi Forces and go to the battlefield to take it back."

"Remember—you can't gain anything without sacrifice; to get something, you have to pay an equal price."
